1. Petruna - An old Bulgarian's female name 2. In Bulgarian folklore young unmarried woman was usually called "малка мома" MALKA MOMA or just "мома"MOMA. They were at age of 14 - 17 years old. At this time they were considered as ready to be married and to bear children. On the other hand young boys were called "лудо-младо" LUDO MLADO, literally 'young and reckless. 3. HORO - A typical Bulgarian ring dance 4. Petrunka is diminutive of Petruna, but here we have diminutive of Petrunka. 5. Literally - He come from the down part of the village. Many villages were built on a hill so they had down neighborhood and upper neighborhood. 6. The horo dance is played usually in a circle by men and women who catch each others hands. Here, the young boy haven't taken part in the middle of the horo but he went at the beginning. The leader of the horo is usually the best dancer.
